It must have been the fourth or fifth time that his phone had gone off on the makeshift nightstand on his side of the bed before it finally woke him up. His head wasn't pounding as much as it was most mornings, his existence didn't feel quite as depressing, and he couldn't exactly remember the last time he'd slept as soundly as he had the night before. There was definitely something different today felt like it might actually be... a good day? But that wasn't the only thing that was different, the more he took in his surroundings the more he noticed that there was a distinctly warm presence along the side of his body, someone else was in bed with him. It didn't take him any longer to remember who exactly was in bed with him than it took him to de-tangle one of his hands from the sheets and place a hand gently on top of the sleeping head. He didn't want to wake her up just yet, too many things could go wrong if he woke her up now. The decision making last night was exceptionally poor but from what he remembered of the rest of last night it wasn't regrettable, he knew though that when she woke up, sober, she'd probably be a little more than upset with the both of them. Instead Lucy opted to just lay there for a few moments with his eyes still closed, when he felt her stir then he'd get up. He'd learned a lot about her last night and shared a lot with her that he hadn't shared with anyone in such a long time...and she could, sing. And she liked it when he played. As much as it astonished even himself to say it last night he...he felt something for the Dragon Lady. Even a raging asshole had to feel something every once in a while and last night had been by far the best he'd felt since Loki had been murdered, maybe even since his divorce...possibly even before what he remembered of his wedding, he wouldn't know seeing as how he couldn't remember past the altar, something about communal whiskey. He wasn't quite ready to let his first good feeling in such a long time go yet.
It was a few moments in when his nature got the best of him, there was after all a naked woman in bed with him and he was after all, Lucy. He finally opened his eyes and glanced down at the still sleeping Ruby and began to brush his fingers through her hair and let them trail gently down her back beneath the sheet stopping just before too far, maybe, maybe if he just woke her up gently enough he'd have a shot at reliving last night and escaping from this alive. He knew that if she woke up under anything less than perfectly pleasant circumstances his chances of survival plummeted greatly.
"Are you awake?" he whispered down to her.
